By the way, serious question and all joking aside, does the Avalon Team need more time to fine tune things? Do you think you got a quality product out (no regrets or anything)?

Hang on, I though you worked for Avalon?

Incorrect.

Well why the hell has he been such a goose this whole time?  He's just a fanboy in an avalon t-shirt?!

Congratulations to the Avalon team.  In spite of the competitive banter, we've always had respect for the capability of NGzhang & co.  kudos for your achievement.

That was humble.  Thumbs up Smiley

Now I hope all this trolling bullcrap will come to an end, and we can get on with mining bitcoins, buying bitcoins, selling bitcoins, and exchanging bitcoins!

BitSyncom clearly states that there will be a unit shipped to Jeff Garzik and a unit shipped to Bitcoin Foundation. That's two units sent.

Is this a math fail, Tinua, or did you just not read the post?
300 units ordered and paid!
- 1 for Jeff = 299 units left for shipping

The unit for Bittcoin Foundation is a free unit!
Thats my math.

A unit that is free to the Bitcoin Foundation is still paid for by someone - in this case by Avalon. Bitcoin doesn't grow on merkle trees, you know.

So ... will difficulty drop in 3 and a bit days ... or ...

< ozbot> 3249549.58449 | Next Diff in 445 blocks | Estimated Change: -10.0851% in 3d 9h 21m 24s


I think it still might drop. I doubt the first unit's will arrive before ~ 288 blocks until retarget, so the average hashrate for the last 288 blocks would have to rise to more than 33227 Ghps. Do you think 10000 Ghps will be received in the few days?

The cynicism returns!
Sorry, that was not my intention.
But I see not more facts then before the counter go to zero.
No pictures, no shipping number, no video, no email ........ just words.
And that is what worries me as a paying customer!

We shipped

Yeah, shipping two units totally counts.

So you want the names and addresses of all purchasers posted here? I don't think that would be such a good idea.

Oh you guys, I think everyone is at a boiling point because of the delays made by our competitors.

We shipped, website will be updated shortly.

First unit goes to Jeff Garzik in honor for the work he has done for the bitcoin codebase being the only developer who ordered from us.

we also arranged to ship a unit to the Bitcoin Foundation, whom is going to do a demo.

The avalon team on the other hand is going to make sure the whole shipping process go smoothly. like handling DHL/EMS problem, and other custom issues.

cheers.
And how much time you still need to ship the other 299 pieces?
There have not all customer an order or handling problem or custom issues i think?

Wait, no pictures or a demo video even? I wanna see dammit!
Unlike the BFL contests where you make up a promo for a product that doesn't exist (yet), Avalon is probably inviting you to do your best at video and picture editing.

There should probably be a prize for who can do the best "I am mining Bitcoins!" video.

I would just love to see your faces as the offloads it from the truck and when you unpack it and then turn it on.

Would be a cool way to diss BFL. LOL....
